If you're planning to head to a North Carolina or even Virginia Beach, you could face some tricky weather for the start of the holiday weekend, depending.
A hurricane watch is already in place for part of North Carolina's coast. The Tropical Storm's maximum sustained winds today are 60 miles an hour, but it could be upgraded to a hurricane by tomorrow. It'll move fast though and should be far north of Virginia by later Friday.
